Neptune’s passage through Pisces affects all people in such a way that we are asked to see the difference between fantasy and reality.

Neptune, as Steven Forrest so wisely says in his writings, is a window through which we see the collective unconscious from a conscious perspective. Look around—we’ve got quite a view these days! Observe the extreme nature of leadership that has been elected and the polarity this is causing between groups of people.

This didn’t just spontaneously happen recently. You could say that Neptune’s passage through Pisces is like drawing the curtain back to see what’s going on in our collective experience. Racism, sexism, ignorance/lack of education, climate change, poverty, bigotry, animal abuse—all these realities must be reckoned with.

On the other hand, you see a rise of people severing their attachments to money and capitalism and taking up professions and lifestyles that allow for “living simply so others can simply live” Yet, there’s a fine line between this and escapism—bypassing what needs to be done to reconcile this craziness.
